One hundred and ten years ago, Maria Montessori, the first female
physician in Italy, devised a very different method of educating
children, based on her observations of how they naturally learn. In
Montessori, Angeline Stoll Lillard shows that science has finally
caught up with Maria Montessori. Lillard presents the research
behind nine insights that are foundations of Montessori education,
describing how each of these insights is applied in the Montessori
classroom. In reading this book, parents and teachers alike will
develop a clear understanding of what happens in a Montessori
classroom and, more importantly, why it happens and why it works.
Lillard explains the scientific basis for Montessori's system and
the distinctions between practices in traditional,
"Montessomething," and authentic Montessori education. Furthermore,
in this new edition, she presents recent studies showing evidence
that this alternative to traditional schooling does indeed make a
difference. Montessori is indispensable reading for anyone
interested in teaching, training, or considering Montessori
schooling, in developmental psychology, or in understanding about
human learning and education overall.
